What connects today, what is being built, and what is on the list. We do not list a connection until it works.
What Aestar connects to today, what is being built, and what is on the list. The rule the rest of the site runs on applies here: we do not list a connection until it works.
| Connection | Status | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Google Calendar | Live | Ava only offers times that are really open on your Google Calendar, and the bookings land there. |
| Your phone carrier | Live | Keep your number. Forward the calls you would have missed, the after-hours ones, or all of them. |
| Stripe, for your Aestar bill | Live | Your own plan is paid through Stripe. This is separate from taking card payments from your customers. |
| Stripe, for your customers' cards | Coming next | Pay links on invoices at Stripe's standard rates, with no Aestar markup. |
| Email to your customers | Coming next | Booking confirmations, reminders, estimates and invoices by email. |
| Texting to your customers | After carrier approval | Confirmations, reminders and on-my-way texts, once your shop clears carrier registration. |
| QuickBooks | Coming next | Send invoices and payments through to QuickBooks. |
| Outlook and iCloud calendars | Coming next | Calendar sync beyond Google. |
| Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan | Later | Bringing your history across from another system. We are ordering these by who asks. |
| Slack | Later | Shop notifications into a Slack channel. |
| Single sign-on (SSO / SAML) | Later | For shops that need logins managed centrally. |
Google Calendar, in detail
This is the one that changes how Ava behaves, so it is worth doing. Connect it from Settings and Aestar reads your free and busy time before offering a caller a slot — so the time she offers is a time you can actually work. Bookings are written back to the same calendar.
It is optional. Without it, Ava books into the Aestar schedule and holds the time there instead. Nothing breaks; the rest of your Google calendar just does not know.
Your phone carrier, in detail
This is not really an integration, which is the nice part. Forwarding is a setting you change at your carrier, your number stays yours, and you can undo it yourself in a minute without talking to us. See Your phone line.
Why texting is its own row
Sending business text messages in the United States requires your shop to be registered with the phone carriers first. That is a real approval with a real queue, not a toggle we are sitting on. Until it clears for your shop, automatic customer texts stay off, and Aestar will not claim a text was sent when it was not.
Nothing loads from anyone else
Worth knowing if you care about this sort of thing: the public Aestar site loads no third-party scripts, fonts, ad pixels or chat widgets. Everything on the page comes from us. That is enforced by the site's content policy, not by good intentions.
Using something we have not built
Tell us which one. The order is genuinely decided by who asks, and "nobody has asked for that" is the most common reason something is missing.
Still stuck?
Ask Ava. She answers questions about Aestar itself — pricing, setup, what she does on a call — and she will tell you when something is not built yet.
